Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Probably the best outcome we could've hoped for (realistically). We all knew the FA were never going to charge Clattenburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,592 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 'Equally The FA is satisfied that the allegation against Mark Clattenburg by Ramires was made in good faith. It is entirely possible for a witness to be genuinely mistaken and convincing in his belief.'Going by that,guess its the end of the matter and none of our players being punished.Over then Mikel but thats a seperate incident really...

cujo101 75 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Chelsea Football Club's name is dragged through the mud again. Total embarrassment which is run by idiots. Buck or Gourlay or both have to go. No fan of Clattenburg but for us to do this and get shown up......if they use this decision as part of the reason why RdM had to go, well I give up.

Fulham Broadway 17,512 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Nice sitting on the fence there by the FA. Gets them out of a tricky situation.You can tell it's pantomine season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 I blame the board and the legal team for this. Such a serious charge shouldn't be raised in the first place if you are not 110% sure and you have dead-on evidence to back it up, especially when you are dealing with those motherfucking cunts in FA.

Ramires & Mikel were very confident they heard. Why shouldn't club back it's players over a random ref? Now that it's clear, move on but Chelsea were well withing their right. Shouldn't hesitate to back it's players ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cujo101 75 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Our case was so strong that there isn't a case to answer.Well done Chelsea management, thanks for thinking it through and making the club look like a shambles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is, they need to collect dead-on evidences to back up the case before formally raising it to the authorities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Club had it's own internal inquiry where it deemed NOT to pursue with Mata's allegation. But seeing how confident Ramires was, club clearly cannot ask it's own player to shut up on such an issue. I just hope the issue is buried now and everybody just moves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 So clatten-cunt is not gonna see any action taken from the FA....talk about pouring salt in the wound. and now Mikel has to clear his name in front of the FA, after being charged with misconduct...Jesus Christ! i can only wonder what the board is doing to top this fucking off.....l Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 lol we're turning into Real Madrid in terms of controversy.Are we now a 'bad boy' club then? Just need Balotelli and Pepe to complete the set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzchap 8,966 Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Tough call with no corroborating evidence...Mikel will get a fine IMHO - shouldn't be a ban...Plus after spending money the FA will look to recoup ASAPAs a club you have to back your players - if the words 'don't give a monkeys' were used I can understand the confusion,.On a flight to Gambia a little girl was pulling faces and I pulled them back to as we were disembarking I said to her parents in complete innocence 'she's a cheeky little monkey ain't she'Cue awkward silence Being from London, that phrase was part of my childhood and adult life - it's not racist, but with the over sensitive world we now live in, people have to think twice...Sad really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
